Be it. known that 3', JAMES B. HAmmxE), of. New York, in tho ooimty of Few Yozk and, State of New York, have invented a new and useful improvement iii Type- Writing Machines; and I do hereby declare that tile foiiowing is a, i'uli, clear, and exaoi; desoription. of the some. Y v

My invention relates'io that aims of typewriti'ng machines fol: wh ioh Letters Patent Nos. 224,088, 224,183, 232,492, 249,939, :mfi 253,4?5 have heretofore been issued to me. i

They are iii-ado wide in a vertical direct-ion to secure great rigidity. They misguided in their nun ncnt by the kerfs in the inner and outer coimoniric ribs o the lied-plate, which prcrwittheir iateral displacement. Since said lay-levers are alike in size and shape, it is evident that they can be cheaply produced from sheet metal by the use of a single die. To the outer ends of these key-levers, linger-'Lcys, as 12', are secured, and as ihe latter are arranged in two runs 'or banhs,vas shown, (see Fig. 5,) it is necessary to provide alternate linger-keys with ex- ,icnsio ns, as 2, (see Fig. 1,) passing between the finger-keys oi'the inner row. The extent of depression oiiahe outer ends of the key-levers is limited by thestop-pins pressed downward by' their surrounding springs, while their upward movement is limited by the key-lever return stop and rctaininghur,as 151,whichalsoscrvcs, in connection with the hex-led ribs, to maintain the key-levers on their fulcrum. in addition to the key-levers for oscillaiing the, typo-Sogl'llQlthib-FQL other iiy'ilfi'ifi'S arc provided onc a spacing hey-lever o erating: only the es capcmrntnndpreventiugilio i'ull movementoi' the hannner-arin,nnd the remaining two typescgment-shiilinglevers. as will he hereinafter explained.

Typc-sq ment-u rresi i n 9 men]: an ism .-To secure perfect alignment of every type on the segment with an imaginary vertical line on the impression-hannner, the series of stop-pins, as 5i, are provided. which reston the key-levers and operate in conjunction with the stoparm 2], in manner described in several of my former Letters Patent.

side of the central spacingl-zey :1 lever, as 13 and this arranged, which l1 vers,'l,o obtain suliicient leverage, are pivoted on rib 9, instead of on knife-edge l. .ii'the ty 'ie-srp nient carries only two rr'iwsoi'type, only one icr'cr is of course necessary. 'lheyarc notched at 15, where they rest on rib 9, and their rear ends are shown as operating against the lower end of the type-segment shaft; but they may operate in apertures through thesame or against laterallyprojecting pins or studs thereof. Beneath the linger-keys l3 l4 ofthcse levers, adjustable stops, astZ-S, passing, through lugs east on the bedplate, are arranged,which, by limiting, and adjusting the extent of the downward movement of said keys, operate to se cure for each of sai d key-levers the proper ver' tieal adjustment of the' type-segment, so that its second and third row of typeumy each be brought into perfect alignment with the inipression-lumnner. stops under the finger-keys, they may he located over their levers, near the type-segment shaft, in supportsthe location of which will readily suggest itself, so as to limit and adjust their upwardniotion; but this arrangement, while it possesses some advantages, is not so I readily accessible for adjustment as the arrangement shown. .Ovcr each of these typesegment-elevatingkey-levers is pivoted, at the front of the machine, a.- locking earn-lever, as 6, or a stop which, by its handle, can be turned to lock its key-lever in its depressed position, so that in cases where use is made;

principally or exclusively, of the'sccond or third rows of type, both hands are free for manipulation of the finger-keys. By providing lnstead of arranging thethis locking-lever with a camshaped end, the segment-elevating key-levers'cen be firmly locked in position.

The carriage feed meclmnism.-The feed mechanism-m hich, in addition to moving the paper carrier or carriage, also controls the impression-haminer-resembles in principle the invention described in my former Letters Patent No. 224,088, but diflers substantially therefrom in its mechanism. In thestandard, as 40, of the bed'plate, and preferably'onthe adj nstoble bearing-pins, as 39, is mounted the rocking feed-frame, whose front cross-piece, 38,- extends. over the rear ends of the several key'lovors, and whose rear partor shaft, as 41, is provided with a. rearward extension, 42, carrying an adjustable screw projection, 43, resting on thepmvl-orui 5A of escapement-pewl 48, which hitteris seen red in the .bed-plote to the end of e horizontal shaft impelled by its surrounding spiral springto turn in adirection to cause said arm 4413c rest against the upper end of the bed-plate slot, through which it projects. 'l hesp'ring surrounding the pawlshaft has one end secured to or resting against the bed-plate,\vl1ile its ot-hcrendhears against o projecting set-screw, which passes through and adjustably secures a collar on said shalt. This roller is placed as shown to retain the pawl-shaft in place, and serves, also, as is evident, as a means for varying the tensionoi.

S98, and also a loose sleeve, 95, which, on one end, is, provided with a pinion, 94-, for engagement with a rack bar of the carriage, and on the 'OXJPOfa'ltB end with a rotchet-whcel, 17 5, which latter cooperates with the before-mentinned spring-pawl 93 in a manner to cause shaft)? and its eseaiieinent-wheel K to move with the sleeve when the operating-spring of the carriage pulls the letter, through its pinion, to-the left, and whietr pewl rides freely over said ratchet-wheel when the carrlego'is pushed to the right. Shaft 97 further carries, loosely mounted thereon, adjacent to the es capement-wheel K the ham mer-return ing urm orvlever 45, re ulated in its downward move :m'ent by an a. jnstab1e'stop,-as50 and pro--' vided with an aperture for the hammer-arm stud 47, (see Fig. 17,) and withaihammer-set ting'escapement-pawl, 46', the letter carrying,

near its operative end, apin orstud, which extends into the vertical slot of an arm or ext-ensicn of escnpernent-pawl 48. This pawl 46 may be directly mounted onthe hammer-arm, and lever 45 dispensed with; but this is not my preferred construction. this combined feed and hammer-operating. mechanism is as follows: Operation of a keylever elevates the pivoted cross bar 38, and in consequence depresses its rear extension, 42, which in turn depresses pawl-arm 44; and

The operation of causes its pan'l iii to engage and lock the es-- meme oepement wheel K; but as soon. as this engagement is eifeeted hammer-setting esea-pemen'b pew/146 is removed firom engzggemeno with esoapement-wheel K by the eziioalIy-elotted 5 arm of said pawl- 48, and immediately rises in obedience to the force of the beginner-impelling spring transmitted through lever 45; takingits new position opposite the next Succeed ingspace bet-ween the teeth of the eseopementwheel; When, new thelzey-leveris released, f the spring surrounding shell of eseepemontpewl%8.th17ows up 3111144 thereof am'l releases 1'; said pawl from engagement with said escapemeat-wheel; bnbsimulbone'oiisly with or 1' malediately preeeing this releasetlie vertical arm of pawl 48' carries pawl efifoms'afll info ongagement therewith. As. this pawl is held in its elevated position by the hommer-impelling spring, and as this spring is weaker tlmuthe carriage-propelling sp1-i1 1g,'it follows that the pawl 45 oamiotprevent the esoupemonbwheel,

mechanism for giving notice of the proximity of the end of a line is arranged as follows: The bell 177 is fixed on the impression hammer arm in a position substantially in line with (See Fig. 5.) It is, to-

At the ends of the carriage-rack, on studs 104, short links 103 are pivoted, (see Fig. 12,) (if desired, one of these links may be pivoted. to the carriage end,) which-are joined by a. longitudinal disengaging-rod, 102, lying in front of and parallel to said rack. This rod can be moved rearward by a fingerdever, 105. pivotcdonthe left-hand carriage end, and connected at its lower end to said disengagingbar, 'a' spring, as 106, operating either directly or indirectly to move it forward. (See Figs.

,2, 3, and 22.) This disengaging-bar rests in a depression, or is otherwise secured to the dis engaging leeve, composed of side arms, 100, yoke 101, and collar 99, which is mounted on shaft 97 and moved longitudinally the'reonby said disengaging-bar The collar on the rear end of this sleeve is cone-shaped, and is fitted to closelyslide over iatchet-wheel 175, (see Fig. 15,) and, when moved rearward by the disengaging-rod, operates as a cam to disengage the spring-pawl 98 of disk 96 from the said ratchet-Wheel. It should here be stated that paivl 98-is beveled on the side adjacent to the cone-shaped collar, so that said collar can lift the pawl out of engagement with the ratchet-wheel. As this disengagement frees the sleeve which carries said ratchet-wheel and pinion 94 from connection "with shaft 97, and so with escapement-wheel K, it is evident from the operation of the escapement mechanism that the restraint on the carriagaspring ,is removed, which how rapidly moves the carriage to the left. restrained only by the hand of the operator, who releases his hold on the operating-lever and carriage when the desiredlocation of the latter is reached. The position of the operating-lever on the carriage insuresthe presence of manual restraint on the car-' riage-spring at the instant the disengaging sidc arms, resting against pins, support it in mechanism isoperatedl A spring may be placed to operate directly. on the disengagingframe to return it to normal pdsition, or the spring may operate directly on the disengaging-bar. The vertical extensions of the carriage ends are provided with broadened tops, which are connected'by a broad and rigid metal sheet, 17 8, an erasing-tablet over which the paper can be bent without removing it from the carriage.

To these vertical extensions is also attached by pivots the paper-supporting rack, whose which serves the purpose of 1 a I desire to claim herein, and secure by Letters gether with a weight arranged in its cavity, secured to the hammer-arm by a screw. This arrangement secures the necessary momentum for the hammer and utilizes the bell to assist in that function. sufficiently heavy,th e weight may be dispensed with. The bell-hammer 17 6 is pivoted to a lateral extension of a semi-cylindrical slr'le': ton frame, T, whose ends 179 grasp the rollhanger shaft 78 under the erasing-tablet, (see Fig. 12,) being firmly of the erasing-tablet. This construction permits a lohgitudinal adjustment of the hellhammcr on the carriage. The rearward extension' or tailof the bell-hammer abuts against the'under side of the erasing-tablet, and dc termines the proper position of the said hammer forengagernent with the bell when the part of the earriageto which the bell-hammer is fixed arrives opposite its bell, secured as before described. The separate stop-arm andattached sleeve can also be employed when the typescgment carries but one row of type, and is rigidly secured "to its shaft instead of turning on the same. f

Itv is obviousthat the mechanism herein shown for moving the type-segment is also applicable ,to the movement of a fiat typeheldin place by the grooved and 180 thereof, "which fits the edge When thebcllis itself made plate,for the type-wheel could be transformed into apiniangeering with a rack on the rear of a type-plate, suitably guided; or an arm:

could be substituted for the type wheel or segment, for engagement with such plate by means of a sliding connection; but this 'mech-' anism is not claimed herein, but is reserved for a future application.

All matter herein described or not claimed, being of my invention, is ,not therein abandoned, but is reserved to be claimed in future applications.

I do not herein claim a hard-rubber typewheel per se, nor such awheel provided with several'rows of -type, in combination with a series of key-levers and intermediate driving mechanism, as, these matters will constitute the subject-matter of a future application.
